Postgresql connection error

Hi @soham 

Help links for PostgreSQL: https://zapier.com/apps/postgresql/help

still not working getting same error created a database with specific user and id password and followed this steps

1. Create a New Database:

   • Run the following command to create a new database (e.g., gocardless_test):

     sql

     Copy code

     CREATE DATABASE gocardless_test;

   • Press Enter.

2. Verify Database Creation:

   • To list all databases, run:

     sql

     Copy code

     \l

   • You should see gocardless_test in the list.

3. Exit PostgreSQL Shell:

   • Type \q and press Enter to exit the PostgreSQL shell.

2.2 Create a User for Zapier

1. Access PostgreSQL Shell Again:

   • Type:

     bash

     Copy code

     psql postgres

   • This brings you back to the PostgreSQL interactive shell.

2. Create a New User:

   • Run the following command to create a new user for Zapier (replace your_password with a strong password):

     sql

     Copy code

     CREATE USER zapier_user WITH PASSWORD 'your_password';

   • Press Enter.

3. Grant Permissions:

   • Grant the new user access to the gocardless_test database:

     sql

     Copy code

     GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE gocardless_test TO zapier_user;

   • Press Enter.

4. Exit PostgreSQL Shell:

   • Type \q and press Enter to exit the shell.

Step 3: Configure PostgreSQL for Remote Access

3.1 Edit PostgreSQL Configuration

1. Locate Configuration Files:

   • The main PostgreSQL configuration file (postgresql.conf) is typically located in /usr/local/var/postgres/.

2. Open Configuration File:

   • Use a text editor (e.g., nano) to open the file:

     bash

     Copy code

     nano /usr/local/var/postgres/postgresql.conf

3. Modify Listen Addresses:

   • Find the line that starts with #listen_addresses and change it to:

     plaintext

     Copy code

     listen_addresses = '*'

   • This allows PostgreSQL to accept connections from any IP address.

4. Save Changes:

   • Press CTRL + X, then Y, and then Enter to save the changes and exit.

3.2 Edit pg_hba.conf for Client Authentication

1. Open pg_hba.conf:

   • Open the file using nano:

     bash

     Copy code

     nano /usr/local/var/postgres/pg_hba.conf

2. Add Remote Access Configuration:

   • At the end of the file, add the following line to allow access from all IP addresses (you can also restrict this to specific IPs later):

     plaintext

     Copy code

     host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5

   • This allows all users from any IP to connect to any database using password authentication.

3. Save Changes:

   • Press CTRL + X, then Y, and then Enter to save and exit.

3.3 Restart PostgreSQL

1. Restart PostgreSQL:
   • In the Terminal, run:

     bash

     Copy code

     brew services restart postgresql
